Models do not have to be direct scaled representations of a particular location or structure. That was suprising to learn.
This site concept was about the garage as "sea level." I built the site down into the base of the model so that the top floor of the garage became the ground floor of the site. 
This interpretation attempts to minimize the garage without minimizing the top floor (the site). By angling the sides of the garage, the emphasis is placed on the top floor plate, enhancing the perspective from the viewer on the top floor. The planes around the buildings are so close to the garage to emphasize how the taller surrounding structures impose themselves on the site. The fourth side is left blank as a reference to the Mississippi River.
